Failure to complete the form may result in a passport being issued to your child without your knowledge. Many children, born in the U.S. or born abroad to a U.S. citizen parent, are citizens of both the U.S. and another country. A child may acquire the citizenship of a foreign country, for example, through the child's birth abroad, or through a parent. There is no requirement that a U.S. citizen parent consent to a child's acquisition of another nationality. Even though U.S. law may prevent one parent from obtaining a U.S. passport for a child (for example, because of the two-parent signature requirement), a parent may still be able to obtain a foreign passport for a dual national child from the embassy or government of the other country. Under U.S. law, a United States citizen child is required to enter and depart the UnitedStates on his or her United States passport. However, please be advised that, since there are currently no exit controls from the United States, U.S. citizen children can still exit the United States undetected on foreign passports.U.S. law and regulations concerning the issuance of U.S. passports do not apply to foreign governments when they issue passports to people (including children) whom they consider to be citizens of their country, whether or not the foreign passport is issued in the United States and/or to a person the United States considers to be a U.S. citizen. If you think there is a possibility that your child may have another nationality, you are encouraged to contact the relevant country's embassy or consulate directly to inquire about the rules governing the issuance of that country's passport to your child, including the possible availability of mechanisms to prevent the issuance to your child of that country's passport without your consent.
